The single-chip microcomputer Uoutputs high and low levels repeatedly via the output ports G, B, LG and LB every preset time through a counter so as to realize polarity reversal of the electrodes. The constant-current control modulecompares a sampling result of the current sampling modulewith a preset value; when the sampling result of the current sampling moduleis lower than the pre-set value, no voltage is output; when the sampling result of the current sampling moduleis higher than the pre-set value, a voltage is output to control the DCDC constant-voltage constant-current moduleto decrease the output voltage, so that the purpose of constant current is realized.

A flange extends from the insert bodyof the electrode inserttowards the cover, a threaded holeis formed in the flange, and the coveris fixedly installed on the insert bodywith a screw which extends through a counterboredefined in the coverto be engaged in the threaded hole. Alternatively, the covermay also be fixedly installed on the insert bodythrough a threaded connection. For example, an external thread(as shown in) is disposed on the flange, an internal threadis disposed in the cover, the coveris fixedly installed on the insert bodythrough a threaded connection. Understandably, the covermay also be fixedly installed on the insert bodythrough a threaded connection or a buckled connection, which will no longer be detailed here.
